Mechanical Mayhem Update in LEGO Fortnite - v29.10
ProductsLearn more
LEGO® Fortnite® is always growing, always expanding, and always giving exciting gifts to players, and the free Mechanical Mayhem update is a great example of how much more fun these additions bring.
LEGO Fortnite version 29.10 has a bunch of unique features and improvements for LEGO Fortnite, and none is more exciting than vehicles and the steering wheels that control them.
In this LEGO Fortnite story, we’ll take you on a grand tour through this update, from building new vehicles to creating the parts that power them and introducing you to a new eco-friendly Station that turns what you already have into useful items.
LEGO Fortnite Vehicles
LEGO Fortnite now has vehicles!
You can find three new vehicles in your Builds menu. Scroll all the way down, and you’ll see a new section called Rugged Rollers. The three vehicles include:
- Speeder, a light, single-person vehicle. The recipe to create it appears after you add the new Power Cell item to your inventory. (We’ll talk about the Power Cell in the next section.)
- Offroader, a larger vehicle great for carrying passengers around. The recipe to create it appears after you add Flexwood to your inventory.
- Hauler, a huge, flatbed truck, perfect for transporting tons of people and materials across your huge open world
How to Make LEGO Fortnite Vehicles
Building the Speeder, Offroader, and Hauler vehicles is a lot like building any big structure in LEGO Fortnite. You’ll need to collect resources and use those to construct parts. You construct those parts in stages. Connect enough of those, and your vehicle poofs into existence. Then you can just hop in and drive around!
Because LEGO Fortnite is a creative sandbox where your imagination is the limit, you also have access to the individual parts that make up each vehicle. That means you can use those to construct your own vehicles, too. Feel free to put wheels on your house and see if you can’t drive it around!
Just remember that LEGO Fortnite vehicles need a Power Center filled with a Power Cell before they go anywhere. You can find those battery-like items in the Power Centers section in the Build menu, under the Toys > Controls menu.
The Compost Bin
The Mechanical Mayhem update also brings a new Station to LEGO Fortnite. The Compost Bin is an eco-friendly addition to your LEGO Fortnite world.
Feed it various resources, and it creates compost in the form of Biomass, Fertilizer, or Soil. What you get out of it all depends on what you put into it! When you create Biomass with the Compost Bin, you’ll unlock the Power Cell recipe.
You can make a Power Cell at your Crafting Bench. It’ll be sitting in the same menu as the Grappler, Survival Compass, and Torch. To craft a Power Cell, you’ll need 6 Glass and 50 Biomass. Raid local bandit camps for Glass and fill your Compost Bin for Biomass.
A Wrench and an Illuminator
LEGO Fortnite version 29.10 has a bunch of quality-of-life improvements, bug fixes, and a ton of new characters to play. Two of the best new things are items that you can create.
The new Wrench item lets you control multiple Switches and Thrusters at the same time, using channels. That means that now you can activate as many Thrusters as you want to! To unlock the Wrench, add a simple Wooden Rod (which you can make at a Lumber Mill) to your inventory.
The new Illuminator item lights up the darkness around your character, kind of like a Torch that you don’t have to carry. To get it, you’ll need to put a Thermal Fish (which you can find in hot locations) in your inventory. You can craft it with an Uncommon Crafting Bench or better. The Illuminator is in the same Crafting Bench menu as Totems and Charms. Then you can equip it on your character through the Inventory menu, and it appears at the bottom right in the Charms | Equipment slots. You’ll know it’s equipped because not only can you see better at night, but it’ll look like a bunch of fireflies are dancing above your head.
That’s a lot of stuff and a lot of potential. Good luck and stay safe on your LEGO Fortnite roads.
